Bill Pinkham
Bill Pinkham has worked to promote alternative modes of transportation,
renewable energy development, and to protect of our natural environment.
He enjoys representing bicyclists' interests in West CoCo County
and is happy to have made new friends in the EBBC.
Bill managed to parlay his degree in Philosophy/English Lit into a job as a
carpenter. Although my work compels him to use a van to transport heavy
boxes of tools and construction materials, he rides as much as possible
for errands, visits, and meetings, and often pedal for recreation on the
weekends. Bicycling was a big factor in his losing 60 lbs. five years
ago, which averted major back surgery.
Bill is an
active member of the Richmond Greens, and belongs to the Nature
Conservancy, the Sierra Club, and the Audubon Society. He was active in the
recent successful campaign to elect the first Green to the Richmond City
Council.
